Some years ago, in Hollywood, I asked a young woman returning from the International ANSWER protest parade, why she supported Communism given that it never succeeded. She said that the previous attempts were not done correctly, but they are better now, and would.
Well, of course! They're so much smarter than those dummies who tried it in the past. I'll feel so much better now, if Obama is reelected, knowing our future is bright.

My response to that one is "An incompetent implementation of Communism murdered 100 million during the 20th Century. God save us from it properly done."
Yeah, well, things didn't go so well for Mussolini in the end either.
